Happy Fathers Day

Happy Fathers Day to the best dad we could ever ask for. He is such a great daddy and you can tell by how much the kids love him. Even though I do call him "the fun parent". I know someday when Krissa starts dating our roles will change. ha ha Love you babe I hope you have a great fathers day, and I hope it is filled with lots of fishing on your boat=)

To start our fathers day weekend off we went for a ranger ride yesterday, it was really fun until big black clouds rolled in and we had to make it out of the canyon in about 10 minutes. We survived and I'm pretty sure Paislee thought it was the best ride ever=) She kept yelling woohoo!


Brady took his trusty BB gun with us in case we saw any snakes. He kept asking Brian when they were going to stop and hunt for snakes. I heard Brian say "I don't know about you but I would rather just leave the snakes alone and hope we don't see any. Brian's just a little afraid of snakes=)



If you look in the distance you can see Brady heading up to the hills to look for snakes. With our trusty shih tzu behind him for back up. haha



Slip and Slide

Its finally warm enough here to pull out the slip and slide. Krissa and Brady are loving it and Paislee loves to pretend like she is doing it=)
Here she is looking like she is really going to dive in...
but she really only went about this far and that was just walking in it.
In these pictures Paislee had the hose kinked and everyone was trying to run through the sprinkler before she let the kink out. She was pretty easy to fool=) All we had to say was look at the kitty and she would look all over for a cat=)

Seinfeld and Chewbacca aka chewy

We went to Salt Lake this weekend to see Jerry Seinfeld and the host of the Marriage ref Tom Papa perform. And let me tell you they were both hilarious. At the very end Jerry let people ask him questions and when someone asked where a prop was from his Seinfeld sitcom he said. "You do realize this isn't TV and we are live" Then he proceeded to stick is hand back and forth in front of him to prove to the guy that he wasn't in a TV. We were so glad to get to go out with my mom, my brother Ray and his girl friend Jeanie and no kids. What a great date night=)

Saturday we went to pick out a new puppy. We ended up with this little fur ball and since well he looks like chewbacca from star wars his name is chewbacca. Chewy for short. Brady had a little crying fest at the guys house because he wanted a different puppy because it was the smallest and he was worried the other puppies would hurt it. What a sweetie. Once we told him our new puppies name he got over it. He loves star wars. Krissa on the other hand was in love at first sight and therefore many of the family members haven't even gotten to hold chewy. We will see if she is as excited about him when potty training begins=)

Goodbye Penny


After this past week and having to watch penny slowly get worse we made the decision to take her to the vet today and put her to sleep. It was a very hard decision but she is out of pain. We will miss our penny.
Krissa had a really hard time today so I told her to draw a picture. This is what she came up with.

Bike Race

Our neighbor told us about a bike race they have in Hailey every year for adults and kids so we loaded the kids up for their first race. Of course neither Brian or I could race even a inch on those courses but our kids did great. Brady only looked like he wanted to quit once but he kept going. And Krissa only slumped her shoulders and frowned once when she heard they had to ride the course for 5 minutes haha

Brady, Krissa and our neighbor GracieLook at the intensity on their faces =)
The end of the race and their still smiling so I guess that's a good sign=)
Brian gave Paislee and lift on the bike...

and when Krissa and I finally caught up at the truck paislee was shaking her butt at us and saying "nana nana boo boo shake my tushy". I guess she was pretty proud she beat us to the truck=)

Little Artist

Paislee told me to come and look at the picture she drew of Penny. When I saw this on the easel I was a bit surprised because it actually looks like a face with hair. Maybe she will be an artist someday=)

Stepping stones and Evil Costco=)

After we made stepping stones at Brian's mom's house we decided we needed some for our yard.
So the kids started putting their hands and feet in the cement, and with a few cool rocks we were done.
We asked our little neighbor boy charlie if he wanted to join us. Isn't he the cutest little guy=)
The finished product=)
Brian made the mistake of sending me in to Costco alone. I was just going in for tomatoes but I came out with tomatoes this cool ball and a few other things. Curse you evil Costco=)
For only $30 the kids and all the neighbor kids spent a whole afternoon outside. I think that was worth it=)
And since I was within the weight limit I couldn't resist trying it out. I have to say it was pretty fun!
